Hair Chalking

 you will need: 

go to your local art supply store, and look for the aisle with pastels. We purchased Senellier soft chalk pastels from Blick. Choose as many colors as you would like

                                                        Directions:

Simply twist your dry hair (wet hair will make the pigment turn into a real dye--but will wash out in a few washes) and rub the chalk up and down. The chalk releases more pigment on texture, so twisting your hair as you chalk will help create a brighter effect. The chalk dust is messy so plan ahead what you will be wearing and where you will do the chalking.

To remove:

Wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo, so it removes the natural binding saps that are found in soft pastels. Chalk removes moisture from your hair and can leave dry, so condition well. 

Happy Chalking!
